| # XML Handlers |
| This directory contains a list of handlers used by the XML parser to process a XML producing different results. |
| There are currently 3 available handlers: |
|
|
| - tree: generates a lua table from an XML content string (the most common used handler). |
| - print: generates a simple event trace which outputs messages to the terminal during the XML parsing, usually for debugging purposes. |
| - dom: generates a DOM-like node tree structure with a single ROOT node parent. |
|
|
| # Usage |
| To get a handler instance you must call, for instance, `handler = require("xmlhandler.tree")`. |
| Then, you have to use one the handler instance when getting an instance of the XML parser using `parser = xml2lua.parser(handler)`. |
| Notice the module `xml2lua` should have been loaded before using `require("xml2lua")`. |
| This way, the handler is called internally when the `parser:parse(xml)` function is called. |
|
|
| Check the documentation on the root directory for complete examples. |
